Shattered, you find yourself unable to do anything except long for the person you just lost. Unfortunately, time waits for nobody, so picking yourself as best as you can, you work your hardest to move on. Just looking at their favorite book or eating something that they loved can open the floodgates.

1. You hear a special song playing at random moments

If you and your loved one had a song that was special to both of you, or if there was a song that you played at the funeral, you might just hear it again. At first, you might think that it is just your mind playing tricks on you. But if you start to hear it when you randomly turn on the radio or it can be heard from a passing car, then it could be that your loved one's spirit is trying to contact you.

Vivid, happy dreams about them might just be your way of coping with intense grief. But if they regularly appear in your dreams, it could be their way of reassuring you that everything is going to be okay.  William Worden, a psychology professor at Harvard Medical School, writes in a paper, “To cope with the loss more effectively it is important that the bereaved find a way to remember and remain connected to the deceased (without it negatively affecting their life)."

4. You recognize a familiar scent

Hugging your loved one would have had you attuned to their scent and it's one that you associate with them. Whether it was a particular perfume or used a special soap, if you notice these smells around you when there is nothing that could possibly have the same scent, then it could be your loved one is nearby.

5. You feel unusual electrical activity around you

Electricity manipulation has long been associated with spirits. So if you find your phone malfunctioning, a light flickering, or the television channel changes on its own, don't completely freak out. It could just be that your loved one is trying to get your attention.
